Ability Part 2

A myth submitted to the site by Daryl Torkington

Wigan, Lancashire, England

(This story begins with three lads pushing Billy into a vat of Toxic liquid - see part 1)

It was two days after the incident with Billy and the three lads. Michael, Jonathan and Murdock were still stunned that Billy was alive. Murdock was the only person to know of Billy’s power and tried to convince Michael and Jonathan that he had them but Billy had something sparkling much more up his sleeve. Billy was also coming around with the powers he had and searched Mythical and supernatural facts to see if this had occurred before.

It was English. There was a new girl named Mary that had started. She sat beside Billy. During the class Murdock watched the hands of Billy waiting for something to happen. He even grabbed out his phone to take a photo. Mary was making Billy nervous, because she was a beautiful intelligent girl. He never had friends or would speak to anyone. As Murdock watched his hands, Mary turned to ask him for a pencil. He started to blush. Then all of sudden a spark flashed from his hand and hit the back wall.

Murdock managed to catch the spark on his phone. The spark burnt a little hole in the wall. The kids in the classroom wondered what it was at first but soon got back to what they were doing. Murdock was happy with himself and grinned through the rest of the lesson.

At break he showed the picture to Michael and Jonathan but they still wanted prove so they thought of a plan. Soon the guilty day turned to well being day and soon questions were about to be answered. Billy was walking home. He took a short cut through a alley that leads to the back of his home. He was halfway home before being stopped by three unwelcome visitors. Michael, Jonathan and Murdock.

‘We know about your powers Billy so you might as well show us’ Michael whilst he walked slowly forward. Billy starred with a grin ‘I don’t know what your on about’ he said. Then Murdock pulled his phone from his pocket and showed him the picture. Billy looked at it and laughed ‘That was just the sun rays rebounded of my hand’. Michael looked at Murdock and Jonathan then give a huge whack at Billy’s stomach. They laughed as he descended to the floor.

They quickly stopped laughing as Billy’s hands started to glow. He slowly rose and his eyes were sparkling white. The lads were getting ready to run but Billy shot at Jonathan with his lightning making him land in a pall of wet and sloppy mud, he then blasted Murdock with his water powers making him fly 100 yards from were he was standing landing on solid ground. Lastly there was Michael the big man of the group. Billy pointed his hand at Michael. Michael then started to lift from the floor. Billy steered Michael over a dustbin then let go. Michael was now head first in a dirty dust bin.

Billy looked at them all and smiled ‘If any of this is mentioned again, ill give you much more’. It was 30 minutes later before the lads recovered from the takings with just a minimum of three scratches.

It was 7 pm and still Billy was laughing at what he had done. Well at least it gets them of his back for now. As he was getting dressed his two dogs Jasper and Mini started to bark like mad. He shifted the draws back to see what the problem was. Standing beside the dogs was a someone just starring back at him. He closed the draws then quickly opened them again. The person had gone and the dogs had stopped. What could it have been?
